Errr... why the rapid new releases all of a sudden ?

Besides, you only need to changed those entries to lib32 if you don't have a
64bit perl build. I did succeed building a 64bit perl and get it to work
with a DBD built versus standard Oracle 9.2.0.2 on a HPUX 11i system. Worked
fine. The trouble was/is that we need ndbm libs which are difficult to find
(and get to work) for 64bit HPUX :(. So in the end we're using a DBD build
on a 8.1.7.4 oracle to talk to the 9.2 database.

I'm not all that sure it's desirable to use 32bit libraries when using
Oracle9. I tried that first on our HP systems but couldn't get it to work
reasonably fast. So I went the 64bit route and hit the ndbm problem, but at
least we know the 64bit approach by itself DOES work :)

(need to add "-Dcc=cc -Ui_dbm useposix=true -A prepend:libswanted='cl
pthread ' -Duse64bitall " to your Configure command to get a nicely working
64bit perl on HP, for those interested)
